Shepsky Puppies for sale in Bonnybridge, Falkirk

1 Shepsky Puppies for sale in Bonnybridge, Falkirk

The Shepsky, a compelling blend of the German Shepherd and Siberian Husky, stands out for its strong, athletic build, weighing 45 to 80 pounds and standing 20 to 25 inches tall at the shoulder. Exhibiting a double coat in shades like black, grey, brown, and sable, they demand regular grooming due to their shedding tendencies. These dogs are notably intelligent and trainable, but early socialization is pivotal. Energetic by nature, they're enthusiasts for agility courses and extended hikes. Their loyalty is commendable, making them both loving family companions and vigilant watchdogs.

FAQs

Are Shepskies good family dogs?

Shepskies, a mix of German Shepherd and Siberian Husky, are excellent family dogs known for their intelligence, energy, sociability, and affection. They are loyal and protective, forming strong bonds with their families and are generally gentle with children, making them great companions for active households who can provide consistent training and exercise.

Are Shepskies aggressive?

Shepskies are not inherently aggressive but can display protective and territorial behaviour, especially towards strangers and perceived threats to their family or home. Without proper socialisation and training, they may become overly protective or wary, so early and ongoing socialisation is essential to manage these instincts and avoid aggression.

How much is a Shepsky worth?

The price of a Shepsky typically ranges between £600 and £2,000, depending on factors such as the breeder’s reputation, the puppy’s lineage, location, and whether the dog comes with any certifications. Prices may vary, so prospective buyers should check reputable breeders and listings like Pets4Homes for current pricing.

At what age do Shepskies calm down?

Shepskies usually begin to calm down around 2 to 3 years of age, after passing their highly energetic puppy and adolescent stages. Until then, they require plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation to manage their energy and maintain good behaviour.
